Diagbox versions

Post by Rosanbo »

Is there a forum post here step by step for someone who is not updating but is installing from a fresh start?

Is there a download of a full version that bypasses the need to install an old version and slowly install updates?

Google suggests version 7.83 with download sites like this

Why does this page speak of V9.12 ?

At bottom of this page there is numerous links to different versions.

Can it be explained what is "Leave the network adapter switched on but not connected to internet"
How to do that with laptop and wifi router?

Does it work with Windows 7 (websites talk about Win XP)

I am using V7.15 (on a rev B chipset) on a Toshiba NB250 running Windows 7 Starter. It has been used on a C5 X7 (I cannot remember the year) to activate the DRLs.

In no particular order:

No - updates should be installed incrementally, as the necessary firmware for the VCI is also installed depending on version.
Google suggests version 7.83 with download sites like this
https://blog.cardiagtool.co.uk/diagbox- ... st-review/
Ignore that - the version of Diagbox is dependent upon the vehicle it will be used on. Generally 7.58 is the most stable and covers vehicles up to December 2014. Version past 7.60 start to remove manual telecoding options
Can it be explained what is "Leave the network adapter switched on but not connected to internet"
How to do that with laptop and wifi router?
It means you must leave your wireless network adapter switched on and enabled, but do not let it connect to a live internet connection. This is because it needs access to the network adapter to get the hardware MAC info to do with the activation. So just make sure you disconnect from your home internet network during installation, so that it cannot get internet access.
Does it work with Windows 7 (websites talk about Win XP)
Yes

Instructions for installing should be included with your purchase, but are widely available on the net.
